AstroGraph of MS Dhoni Signature

MS Dhoni signs his name as “Mahi” an abbreviation for Mahendra and Dhoni. This is also the name with which his friends fondly call him.

Some notable features in his signature are as follows:

1. Lot of oval curves in his signature signifying Moon.
2. Thin and Long Characters signifying Sun
3. A large M in the signature denotes Jupiter
4. The line below the signature like a sword denotes Mars
5. The position of the dot above i and the small last letter indicating Saturn. Note the position of the dot exactly above the “i”.

Now let us analyze how these planets effect MS Dhoni’s traits and qualities. Sun gives him leadership qualities and we all know he is the most successful cricket captain India has ever had. He catapulted India to the #1 Test team and under his captainship Indian team won the world cups in both the shorter forms of the game – T20 and 50:50. In his horoscope Sun is placed in ascendant – A person born to lead

Moon gives him wealth and along with Sun; wealth accumulated from own hands (literally). He earned all his wealth from him dexterity behind the stumps and in front of it. He is by far the richest cricketer due to his big ticket endorsements over the years and his businesses.

Jupiter gives him leadership status and captaincy besides giving him wealth.

Now coming to the most important planet Mars, which is a commander in astrology parlance. As a captain Dhoni used to destroy the opposition with his war strategies. Mars also makes him the best finisher. In his signature the end line signifies that he ensures that the task at hand is finished to his satisfaction

That leaves us with one more planet, Saturn. Look at his eyes (in the picture attached) do you see an extremely focussed person. Well that is Saturn in him. 

Dear Readers, that was my favorite cricketer analyzed for you using astro-graphology.

Astro-Numero analysis of PV Sindhu’s Signature

Before going to the numerology of PV Sindhu let us analyze her signature. As can be seen from the sign they are completely illegible. Unless you know that these signatures belong to her, you will not be able to make out what she has written while signing. Small letters (specially ‘n’) and illegible signatures are two distinct features in the signature.

Small letters signify Saturn and illegible writing symbolizes Rahu. Numerologically, Rahu is represented by Number 4 and Saturn by number 8. The third planet which is predominant in her signature is Jupiter seen by the large “S” at the start of her signature.

Rahu represents attention and Saturn represents focus, hard work and commitment, two features which makes her tick in her game. Focus allows her to make a comeback in the sets. She is a great fighter who believes in herself. She dreams big.

We do not have a reliable source on her time of birth, we only have her date of birth as it appears on 

Wikipedia, - 5-July-1995. As per this her birth number is 5 and life path number is 9.

Before we get into further numerological study for her let us see few facts

1. She broke into the Top 20 of World rankings when she was 17 years old (1+7=8)
2. In 2015 she received “Padma Shri” (2+0+1+5=8)
3. She reached highest ranking of “2^nd Seed” on 4-April-2017
4. In 2008, a correspondent in “The Hindu” wrote – “The fact that she reports on time at the coaching camps daily, travelling a distance of 56 km from her residence, is perhaps a reflection of her willingness to complete her desire to be a good badminton player with the required hard work and commitment.” – a clear property of Saturn personality

Now as per her birth day we see that her birth number is 5 and life path number is 9 while numbers 4 and 8 are frequently reflected in her life. Why is that so?

As per the numerology we practice, we have found that if the birth of the individual is before sunrise and after midnight e.g. 12:30 AM, 4:45 AM, etc. the birth number should be of the previous day. Please note that I am guessing that she was born in the wee hours of 5^th July 1995 and so taking 4-7-1995 as her date of birth the numbers 4 and 8 fall into place.

Lord Ganesha and Vastu

On August 25, 2017, the world will celebrate the birth anniversary of Lord Ganesha, the most favorite God of Indians. Millions of people will welcome Lord Ganesha in their homes and pray to him to give them prosperity, peace and harmony in their lives.

Lord Ganesha figurines (or statues) are also the favorite gifts of Indians to give to their near and dear ones during auspicious occasions like Diwali, wedding, house warming, etc. This results in Lord Ganesha being used as a décor and His figurines are placed in different rooms and on different walls as a décor.

Vastu does not suggest that Gods and Goddesses be placed anywhere other than the Puja room. However, the recipients of these gifts are in a dilemma as regards to their placement as many of them are made of material which is not suited for worship like resin and fiber.

In such a case we should look at the statue in terms of its symbolism and form. Lord Ganesha is the God of knowledge and wealth and is also known as a remover of obstacles.

With this vastu symbolism in mind, place the figurine of the Lord in the North (facing South) to fulfill your desires, in the center to harness your skills and in the zone of knowledge i.e. area between West and South West for a sharp memory

May Lord Ganesha bless you this Ganesha Chaturthi

Plant trees in your house as per Vastu

Several people ask me what trees can be planted in the courtyard of home. I researched to know what does the scriptures say.

Matasya Puran in Chapter 255  answers this question as follows:

One should plant Bargad (Banyan) tree in East, gular tree/atti tree (cluster fig) in South, Peepal in West and Pakad tree in North.

In case these trees are planted in wrong directions and it is not possible to cut them you should plant one or more of the following trees to gain overall prosperity and harmony

Ashoka tree (this is not Polyalthia longifolia which the nursery will try to sell you as Ashoka, ask them for original ashoka tree), Moulsari/Bakul, Pomegranade, kewda, chameli, coconut tree, banana tree, chameli tree and Champa (Plumeria).

Planting these trees will bring in overall prosperity and balance in your life.

In case the trees are planted wrongly for example if bargad is in North in place of East, plant one or more of the following trees along with bargad to bring in overall success.

1. Ashoka
2. Moulashri/Bakul
3. Pomegranade
4. Kewda
5. Banana /Kela
6. Chameli
7. Champa

A note on Ashoka tree and False Ashoka tree - . Ashoka trees are small in height, while false ashoka is taller.

Ashoka flowers are red (initially orange in color) while False Ashoka flowers are apple green in color. Ashoka fruits look like broad beans containing multiple seeds while false ashoka fruits are small, spherical and contain only one seed

How Planets reflect in body shape and expressions?

When I saw Ishant Sharma celebrating after taking the prize wicket of Charles in the India-West Indies match held on July 5, 2013 it reminded me of a roaring lion as you can see in the image above. Suddenly, as per the Numerology learning from my guru, it stuck me that Ishant Sharma must be having one of his numero-trident based on Sun. I immediately looked up in Wikipedia for his birth day which I found is September 2, 1988. His supporting number comes out to 1 and his mental power is 2. As can also be seen in the picture below he wears a jersey with a number 1 and his signatures reflect the number 2 (Moon).

For me it was an interesting observation which reinforces my understanding of numerology and a practical application of “observation” helping in correlating numerology with body shape and expressions. Ishant Sharma is an embodiment of number 1 from his appearance – he is lean, tall and lanky.

If a number (or its associated planet) is clearly visible in a persona either through face, body, hair, eyes, walk, hand writing then strengthening that number through numerology will increase the positive attributes associated with that number and benefit the person.

What should be the height of Pooja Deities (Home Altar)?

This is a common question which keeps bothering us as most of the times we do not find anyone who can give a proper answer to it.

During my last Vastu related visit to Chennai, I had the good fortune to visit Mahabalipuram, the town of great sculptors and meet Sthapati R. Ravindran who has to his credit sculpted several deities in temples across South East Asia.

During the interactions someone asked him about the size of the statue of Gods we place in the home altar (Pooja room).

He said, “As per Vedic texts, when you place an idol at home for worship, it should not be more than the size of one mushti.” He further explained that the pedestal and crown of the deity is not to be considered.”

One mushti is the the length including the width of the palm and the length of the thumb fully extended (This is shown in the figure attached).

Any idol which is bigger than the mushti as explained above should be placed in a proper temple and not at homes.

What can be done with Vastu Consultation || Part 1

Many people ask me what they can achieve with a Vastu consultation or in other words how do I perform Vastu consultation?

I focus on three aspects when suggesting vastu corrections of a premises; residential, office or factory.

1.  Enable the space to help the inhabitants. Here I suggest remedies which balances the vastu defect and yes you do not have to demolish anything to balance the vastu defects. I also ensure that the energies of the space are positive and dynamic.
2.  Emotional healing, I have found that many clients do not realize their full potential because of their thought patterns. When we program the space using Vastu, their sub-conscious start helping them take the right decisions when life presents them with its ups and downs.
3. Enable Growth  Many times help and support from beneficial planets switches on the circuits of life when one can achieve growth or accomplish an objective in life. This can be an expansion in business, promotion in job, harmony in family, benefits from medicines, etc.

As I have written earlier, I do not believe in doing Vastu for sake of doing it. Vastu consultation should have a measurable benefit in the mind of the client. Once he achieves it he knows it is the fruit of good Vastu.
